CT is wired correctly and yes AR = enabled CT mode = selected and Power = set to 0.0kW and it's STILL exporting, not a lot for example producing 500W, house uses 490W and export is 10W. Previously (before the firmware upgrade) it Said "Reflux Enabled" and Power in Watts, now it's saying NORMAL and Power in Watts On the days before and after meter reading day yes and I would like to stay in Positive territory so that is why I would like to prevent Export.

Update: They (Sofar) tried again to remotely update the firmware again, but failed again, so I did it myself. First USB Stick (32GiB) gave a USB error so used another one (16GiB) and that went oke. DSP-1 update took the longest, counting UP from 0 - 100% DSP-2 update took a mere 5 seconds ARM update took also approx 5 seconds. Now I hope the trouble I have are gone, but already noticing one thing. I have Anti-Reflux enabled with Power to 0.00kW and normally it shows in the Screen but not now, send Sofar an email to ask what is wrong with that. Edit: Problem that AR is enabled and still it exports it's still there. (it's only minor export (10W) but still that would run the meter backwards which I don't want.

Thx, that “safety” directory is a separate folder in the root of the zip file. (Same as “firmware”) they don’t mention that folder in their instructions

That is the "brick" I am afraid off ???? Even with the USB upgrade method

Yes will do, but there is also a folder in the zip called "safety" which holds the following files. Copy that as well?

Thx, in the ZIP file there are MANY firmware files in the firmware directory According to the Instruction (I posted above) this is the only directory I should add to the USB stick (formatted as Fat32) May I ask why?

Haven't heard this one for ages, come up today in my Playlist

They just me the Failure log that shows they couldn't remotely update the firmware. They tried it just when I had internet troubles ???? (I asked them to try again)

USB Stick (Format as Fat32) Here are the instructions (PDF) I got with the Firmware. Firmware Update Instruction.pdf

Yep, but NO AC switch

Yes they did, but they failed, I think they tried to do it when my Internet was down. I asked them to try again, but NO reply and NO change.

The magic word here is until ... And there it already goes wrong. In the text (pdf) it says this. What do they mean by DC and AC switches, not breakers because in the end of that section it says

I finally after several emails and several days waiting received a Firmware Update for my Sofar On-Grid Inverter. Did anyone update the firmware on their Sofar inverter and any luck doing it?

Look for Studio 7 they are authorized resellers https://www.studio7thailand.com/en/store-locations On their site (for Chiang Mai) they list 4 locations Studio7- CentralFestival Chiangmai Studio7- KadSuanKaew Studio7- CentralPlaza Chiangmai Airport Studio7- MAYA Chiangmai

Already in the news

I will send them an email. Thx. i have downloaded several versions of the manual (inclu an Aussie one) but none (that I currently have) list all the options that I see in my inverter. tmrw I will try to write down the options in the menu (main ones and the ones in settings only) that I see and try to go from there.

I am unfortunately NOT on Facebook.

Could always try Google translate ????

Can't change it! Tried it, when I enter the pwd (default, if someone knows who to remove that please let me know) it says "Fail"

We found that out today. We are (almost) nowhere near to a definite solution

5555555555555 so my manual is the Italian manual version. Just for fun, will have a look in the inverter if Italian is listed as a Language ????

Another point where the manuals are contradicting each other is the CT Pins for the Coms Interface. One lists them as Pin 5-6 and an other one is listing them as 15-16
